3. Discussion of CIMI SCT extension namespace.
   1. CIMI tool for SCT ext could be used by other WG but this would result in a significant governance problem
   2. One approach could be that any use of the extension by other WG could only occur through the adoption of CIMI archetype
      1. This means only CIMI creates concepts in the extension.
      2. Stan will ask Harold if he can adapt the tool to also publish the vocab in MIF
   3. Need to meet with CIMI to get the WG input.

Next Agenda

1. Further glossary work

      2. Continue discussion of CIMI SNOMED CT Extension Namespace

Discussion

1. Worked on Reference page table of terms to define x 40 min
2. Discussed SNOMED CT extension x15min
   1. CIMI use the SCT Ext for the following activities:
      1. As a tool to capture needed concepts during the development of CIMI Models
      2. There are two outcomes of this tool use:
         1. The new concepts are added to an external code system standard (this might occur after initial publication of the CIMI model)
         2. The new concepts remain as HL7 concepts and therefore have to be managed and published by HL7
   2. Issues to decide noting that the extension will be used by CIMI in any case
      1. Should the SCT Ext tool be used by other WG? I think we should assume that all HL7 use will follow the same process
      2. What do we do with the concepts not included in an external code system?
         1. Do we export them out of the tool into MIF and publish them as another HL7 code system?
         2. Do we publish an official SCT Ext namespace?
         3. Both?
         4. Something transitional where we initially publish in MIF but then stop? Is it okay to have another way to publish HL7 code systems?
         5. Do we move other HL7 code systems to the SCT extension and retire MIF as a code system tool?

Next Agenda

1. Rob S. Provide V2 Table entry for glossary
   1. heather will be attending to help craft a unified HL7 Terminology/Vocab glossary
2. If Stan is available - more thoughts on CIMI SCT Extension as noted above
   1. Need to meet with CIMI to get the WG input.
